I AM A RETIRED SR MGR.MY SUGGESTION IS IN RESPECT OF PREFRENTIAL
RATE OF INTEREST  WHICH IS ONLY 1% MORE INSTEAD OF 11/2 %
FOR DEPOSITS OF SHORT TERM DURATION .OTHER BANKS LIKE SBT ,IOB ARE
GIVING THE BENEFIT.

CLASSIFICATION OF SR CITIZENS INCLUDING EX STAFF SEPERATELY IN DEPOSITS SO THAT TDS IS AVOIDED.THIS IS BECAUSE OF PAST EXPERIENCE
SINCE TAX WAS DEDUCTED IN SPITE OF SUBMITTING 15G FORM.

Dear friends,

Bank of India is giving Senior citizen Ex-staff members 0.5 + 1.00 = 1.5% more on term deposits of 6 months and over.

For senior citizens declaration in form No.15H is to be submitted whereas form 15G is for normal depositors.

Ask the management to consider us at least equal to other customers. Just ordinary treatment is sufficien. Dont extend us second rate service just because we, being retired employees of the bank, will endure whatever torture that is loaded on them.

At present pension is being disbursed on 1st of every month. However on many occasions pension is being paid two to three days late because of sunday and holidays.
This is very inconvinient for those who are depending on pension for paying monthly bills which are usually due on 1st of every month,
So I request AICBRF to urge management to disburse pension on last working day of every month. Some banks are already paying Pension on last working day.

We should request all the bank managements to credit our pension on the last working day of the month.Why Canara Bank alone, Somasekharaji? We are not running away.Even if something happens to us on the last days of the month, our spouses would be pleased to return that part of pension .ABROA/AIBRF/RBONC/AIPARC etc should jointly consider projection of this demand.
 
Likewise, we may also be considered for granting festival advance at zero % interest and  SHORT TERM  personal loans at REASONABLE INTEREST RATES.All these could be done by individual bank managements.

Dear sirs,
Pension Regulation 54 says:
Manner of payment of pension:
A pension fixed at a monthly rate shall be payable monthly on or after the first day of the following month .'
However, a few Banks like IOB credits pension on the last day of that month.
SBI has variable dates.

All the bank managements can afford show the minimum gesture of crediting pension on the last day of each month.   As almost all the banks in public sector have adopted core banking,  it should be possible for them to effect online credit of pension.   The banks should not forget that the retired employees/officers were very sentimental and were identified themselves with respective banks all their service and the bond is lifelong!   Salary and pension should not be discriminated!  Most of the pensioners are not only senior citizens but needy in the evening of their lives!

Be happy

and no doctor certificate etc are required.
Medical assistance scheme has since been extended since 1.7.2012 for VRS optees 
also .Rs.2000/- will be credited on declaration basis .A new insurance schemeis about to be introduced inlieuof  reimbursement of rs.2000/-.This policy covers Rs.150000/-
on 20%cooption basis for both pensioner and his spouse on yearly basis under group insurance coverage.This policy cover is from the age from 50 to 90 years.

Bank of India also credits pension on the last working day.  Incidentally, can any one advice as to the benefits extended by Bank of India, if any, to its pensioners who had retired voluntarily under the pension scheme – i.e. after putting In minimum 20 years service.

Dear Perumalji,

Central civil pension rule is that the pension has to be paid on the last working day of every month except for the month of March because of financial year closing. The rule also says that even if the pensioner dies on the last day of the month he is eligible for pension  for that day also. Therefore it is felt that this is a  right item to be taken up with all the banks to pay the pension on the last working day except for the month of March just like Central Civil Pension rules.I feel there should not be any objection for above small procedural change from the banks and this will be of great help for the pensioners.

IOB is always wonderful as for as Staff Welfare Measures are concerned. Indian Bank even while at the time of making profit is very very stingy in staff matters and nothing as said by you is eligible except .75% deposit interest for senior citizen.

I am happy about the pensioner friendly attitude of IOB. Why not other banks emulate IOB ? In addition to the above, I also understand that the retirees got  2 gms.gold coin to commemorate 75 years!! Compare the attitude of Canara Bank, which ignored the retirees at the time celebration of its centenary. I wholeheartedly appreciate the IOB for its sympathetic treatment of its ex employees and I wish their tribe increases!
Is AICBRF listening?

Dear Sir,
I am not against Banks paying pension on the last day or at an earlier date of the Month.
I have just quoted the 'PROVISO' in the pension scheme.
It is the wish of every Pensioner that his Monthly Pension be paid ATLEAST on the Last day of the Month.
Some Banks,I have already mentioned, are magnanimous and are paying on the LAST date.
If others also emulate the same, the good gesture will be appreciated by all the Pensioners.

You are wrong Mr.Mani or you are not uptodate with the latest benefits available from Indian bank for retirees.Though I agree that INDIAN BANK COULD HAVE DONE MUCH MORE since only due to the untiring efforts of staff members most of them alreadf\y retired the bank could come out of the mess created by its CMD, members of the Board, and indirectly by the Ministry of Finance and RBI due to their passive or indirect support to the decisions of the top suring the 90s.
 
Now IB retirees( senior citizens ) get 1.5% interest extra for deposits.They get a medical allowance of Rs.4000/- p,a besides reimbursement of Health insurance premium for insurance of Rs.2 lakhs every year.

I agree with Balaji views.

In this forum, we all should discuss those issues which are of crucial nature. It makes no difference if pension is paid on ist of month or last day of preceding month.

There MAY not be much difference in dates.But my dear friends, we are in the process of seizing our right ful dues from our banks.If salary is payable in the same month, why can't the pension be paid like that? If somebody does not like it or want it only during the 1st or 30th of next month, well, he could draw it on that date.
 
In the process of raising our big demands like pension updation etc,we may include such small items , which could be implemented easily than our major demands.This doesn't  mean dilution of our major issues. 
 
This practice is quite usual everywhere.This may help us in reaching out to the managements slowly but steadily.Such small demands would make them feel that we have started raising our demands and may consider some negotiating space.They also know that we become alert and may resort to some kind of actions sooner or later.
 
No management really wants to provoke the retirees.The banks would have to yield to our demands either tomorrow or day after.What we should do is to create opportunities and space for interactions.
So, my dear friends, let us not SIT IDLE.We will keep on giving the managements some feedbacks.(I mean demands)

More than the payment of pension on first day or last day, it is the concern that the banks show to its ex employees that is worth mentioning. By paying the pension on the last day of the month the bank recognizes to some extent the service rendered by them. Onthe other hand if they pay ritualistically on the first day of the month, it will not be actually the first day, if holidays intervene. This maybe a small thing,but definitely it shows that there is some space for the retirees in the bank.

Sir, I only compared with IOB Staff Welfare measures as reported in this site and medial benefit as said by you  is only to super annuation retirees. Banks are not going to loose anything in paying pension on the last working day. While we were working, we were taught that Pensioners are good Ambassadors of the bank we have practiced that also in serving all pensioners. Is it happening to us now? Whether the present  management of all banks are treating now in the same way to even their own  retired bank pensioners?

No, my dear Sir.No bank virtually gives good service to its pensioners at large.Of course, there be a few abberations here and there.But why should we go after such 'good treatments'? What we really want is pension updation, solution of DA issues etc.Let the banks show some mercy on us on these matters.

Sir;
Inspite of so many odds and problems created for retirees by banks /IBA/govt., still we consider that they will recognize to some extent the service rendered by us by paying pension on last day. Think over it again and look towards your goal of updation/ DA neutralisation, Medical insurance etc.

Dear Sri Raghavan,

Could you please confirm whether the  medical allowance of Rs.4000/- pa is,  for  " all retirees irrespective of the cadre in which they retired" or for  "superannuation" retirees only. In other words, whether VRS, or CRS retirees also eligible for the same. To the best of my knowledge IB has not come out any circular clarifying the above points.

Dear "Comrades"
 
Is this a point worthwhile arguing / discussing? The banks are not reducing a single rupee from the elegible pension. They credit either on the last day or on the first day of thenext month. Any way the pensioner is getting the amount. Is it a big thing that is caused by the delay of one day. Pleaaaase dont we have other issues? Or have we achieved / clinched all other issues? Concentrate on other important matters. Shed your egos. Let us fight for the real cause not for this trivial issue.

The salary for the working staff are paid on the last week of the month depending on the day of the month in Bank of India which is decided by the Zonal heads taking in to the region's requirement. Likewise the Pension is also paid on the last working day. I am not aware about other Banks. This will signify a good gesture on the part of the Managements.

Dear Mr.Sundar,

There are plenty of Pensioners who are dependent on Pension.  There are payment of rent or to milk supplier, newspapers vendor etc., who want payment on 1st morning.  In case, if 1st happens to be a holiday, payment would be made only on 2nd.  Sometimes, it can even be 3rd or 4th.  In such a situation, please understand the plight of such Pensioners who are dependent only on Pension for making these payments. 

It is also an important issue.  Please remember all Pensioners are not too comfortable financially. 
 
Thanks, a Million.

Well said, Mr Prasad. All retirees are not affluent and I know many eagerly wait for the pension amount. Instead of making it as first working day, if they disburse the pension on last working day of the month, it makes a lot of difference!

Dear Mr Rishikesavan,
Many pensioners are in the same boat. Those who do not appreciate the difficulties of others, naturally do not find the need of pension, whether it is paid on last day or first of the month. Sometime back also, when I raised the issue in the blog it was dismissed as a trivial matter. I agree with you it is also an equally important issue. And it involves no additional financial commitment too!

Sir, Even for a benefit to their ex. employees for which no cost is involved it will show the attitute of the managment and nothingelse. Persons having sufficient balance in their SB account need not bother about pension payment even on first week.

We should request all the bank managements to credit our pension on the last working day of the month.Why Canara Bank alone, Somasekharaji? We are not running away.Even if something happens to us on the last days of the month, our spouses would be pleased to return that part of pension .ABROA/AIBRF/RBONC/AIPARC etc should jointly consider projection of this demand.
 
Likewise, we may also be considered for granting festival advance at zero % interest and  SHORT TERM  personal loans at REASONABLE INTEREST RATES.All these could be done by individual bank managements.

At present pension is being disbursed on 1st of every month. However on many occasions pension is being paid two to three days late because of sunday and holidays.
This is very inconvinient for those who are depending on pension for paying monthly bills which are usually due on 1st of every month,
So I request AICBRF to urge management to disburse pension on last working day of every month. Some banks are already paying Pension on last working day.

Dear Raoji,
 
Each  one  of us will have to strengthen our organisations .UFBU may talk for us, but they have limitations.Our organisation will have step up pressure on the components of UFBU.All of us will have to pressurise individually and collectively.We cannot shift our responsibilities to Prasadji or Perumalji.They are contributing their entire might to the welfare of all of us.
Let us not forget our individual roles in building up proper pressure  through unity, and promoting awareness among the retirees at large.

Dear friends,
 
While the Banks credit the pension amount to Govt. pensioners on the last working day, similar payment is denied to their own retirees. The  problem is further compounded if 1st happens to be a holiday.

Plans                                Contribution

15%
                                                                         Rs.2.00 lac
